Names

There's a few SL blogs referring to the new Abuse categories.

Here's one that caught my eye:

Indecency > Inappropriate avatar name

Inappropriate avatar name?

Oh great. I knew I was skating on thin ice when I picked "Mariner" out of the list.


Besides cheese and onions, I've always thought in the back of my head that I should have a different name picked out in case Governance gets a torrent of complaints about the one I've chosen.

Although it's been almost two years and I have yet to get a "Your Name Sucks! DELETED!" whack with the banhammer or anything, so the chance of it's pretty slim.

However, should it happen, I won't piss and moan and growl and yell and such.

I'll just shrug, say "All's cool" and politely request they change it to the somewhat more PG-friendly (and funny) one I have in mind.

Then, of course... NEW NAME PARTY! WITH SILLY HATS!

If you do ever change your name, would you consider a having a contest? That could be fun :)

Crap,

I wouldn't worry. I reported a griefer named "Raped Kidd" for, uh, being a griefer but also for having an intentionally vile name. That was back in April 2007. I did it again when a few months later it was back griefing OI Public. I just checked, Raped Kidd, is still on the People list.

Icha.
